MicPort Pro 2 is a portable professional recording interface for laptops, tablets and smartphones. Building on the MicPort Pro, the new model includes CEntrance’s Jasmine Mic Preamp, which reportedly features lower noise and higher gain, adds an internal rechargeable battery to allow recording with phones and tablets, and features a standard camera mount.

MicPort Pro 2 features a switchable high pass filter, 48 V phantom power and a rechargeable battery that lasts more than 6 hours with a typical condenser mic. The product mounts to a mic stand or a small tripod and offers tactile controls. MicPort Pro 2 works with professional-grade microphones and is claimed to improve audio quality on typical USB mics.

“Top voiceover talent choose CEntrance products and MicPort Pro is a well-known solution for broadcast, podcast, and live streaming,” said Michael Goodman, CEntrance CEO. “The new model lets you leave the laptop behind and record to your phone. Now you can travel light and file your professional-quality content from anywhere. By popular request, we’ve also added a soft-knee limiter that catches loud peaks but otherwise stays out of the way of your audio. Combined with the -12 dB safety track recording, this makes the input virtually un-clippable, which is especially important when narrating for games and animation. And since we have so many musicians endorsing our products, we’ve also made it possible to use the MicPort Pro 2 with an electric guitar and bass to record studio-quality parts on the road, making MicPort Pro 2 a ‘Swiss Army Knife’ of audio in the field.”
